Ultravox
While I’m Still Alive
[Verse 1]
Playing the game with the chips on my shoulder
Checking in the mirror as my coffee cup gets colder
Stagger and swagger, combing my hair
If tomorrow's not there, then at least today's all mine

[Chorus]
While I'm still alive
While I'm still alive
While I'm still alive

[Verse 2]
Strutting my stuff, I'm blagging the damage
From coupling with headlines, I was suckled on salvage
The fighting's exciting, the age is dramatic
I'm crackling with static, just jiving to survive

[Chorus]
While I'm still alive
While I'm still alive
While I'm still alive

[Bridge]
Take a stroll down the side roads, I know you want to
A shock in the dark can be good for your heart, oh yeah
[Chorus]
While I'm still alive
While I'm still alive
While I'm still alive

[Verse 3]
Scuffling along on the crest of a wave
Laughing and grafting or jerking and working
Striking a match where life is a gas
I need the flash to make it all worthwhile

[Chorus]
While I'm still alive
While I'm still alive
While I'm still alive
